The two-day event will take place at several locations, most of them on Springfield’s south side. The event is sponsored by the Powerlight radio program that airs Sundays on WXAJ-FM (99.7, “Kiss-FM”).

FRIDAY

The Super Cruise and Movie Night will feature a cruise of classic cars and a display of cars seen in television and films.

The cruise will line up at 5 p.m. at Ace Hardware, 1600 Wabash Ave. All makes and models of vehicles are welcome.

The cruise begins at 7 p.m. Friday and will travel east on Wabash Avenue to MacArthur Boulevard; and then south on MacArthur to Quaker Steak and Lube, 1121 Lincolnshire Blvd.

Several cars from films and TV, including several from the “Transformer” movies, the demon car from the Stephen King film “Christine,” and cars from TV’s “Walking Dead” and the “Back to the Future” movies, will be shown at Quaker Steak and Lube.

At dusk, the Route 66 Drive-In, 1700 Recreation Drive, will screen two current releases, and the 1985 film “Back to the Future” (with that time machine in a DeLorean … but you HAVE to be driving 88 mph for it to work), and “The Dark Knight” (come for Batman, but stay for the Batmobile). Actors wearing Batman, Robin and Riddler costumes will pose for photos. Regular admission prices will be charged for the movies.

SATURDAY

The Powerlight Abe Lincoln Car Show Spectacular will give central Illinois hot rodders and classic car owners a chance to show off their vehicles, and see other kinds of mechanized transportation in action.

The car show is at Knight’s Action Park, 1700 Recreation Drive (next door to the drive-in).

Car show registration costs $15 ($10 to show a car without competing), and registrations will be taken from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday. Judging is from noon to 3 p.m., with awards announced at 4 p.m.

While the judges are judging, attendees can take in:

* Replicas of cars from “Back to the Future,” the “Transformers” movies, “American Graffiti,” “Starsky & Hutch,” “Smokey and the Bandit,” “Christine” and “The Walking Dead”
